Prep Time 8 hours 30 minutes
Total Time 8 hours 30 minutes
Servings 2 large shakes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 2 cups non-dairy milk
  • 1 oz. cocoa butter
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 Tbsp unsweetened vanilla vegan protein powder
  • 1/2 tsp peppermint extract
  • 5 spinach or mint leaves optional, for color
  • 1/4 cup Irish whiskey optional, see notes*
  • 1/4 cup Baileys Almande optional, see notes*

For topping (optional):

  • vegan whipped cream
  • Vegan chocolate finely chopped

Instructions
 

  • FREEZE THE AVOCADO: First, dice your avocado, lay out all the pieces on a large plate or lined baking sheet and place it in the freezer for 8 hours or overnight. You want them to be completely frozen to add an icy quality to your shake!
  • PREP THE SHAKE MIX: Next, heat a medium saucepan on medium low heat and add the non-dairy milk, cacao butter, and sugar. Stir, cover, and let it heat for 5-7 minutes or until the sugar is dissolved and the cacao butter is melted. Stop to stir every 1-2 minutes, scraping the bottom to make sure it doesn’t burn. Then, pour this mixture into a high-speed blender, add the protein powder, peppermint extract, and optional spinach, and blend on high for at least 1 minute until the mixture is smooth and creamy and the cacao butter is emulsified. Place this mixture in the fridge (I put the whole pitcher in there) 8 hours or overnight to chill completely.
  • BRING IT ALL TOGETHER: Blend the chilled shake mix with the optional whiskey, Baileys, and frozen avocado until smooth and well-combined. Pour into glasses and serve topped with the vegan whipped cream and finely chopped dark chocolate. Enjoy!

Notes

*Feel free to sub 1/2 cup non-dairy milk for the alcohol to make this drink alcohol-free.
